Seafood - - La Paz
Looking for your recommendation for a good seafood place or places in La Paz. I read back through threads and am wondering if Milano's and or Dos
Mares still suggested? I am sure I missed many others.

Dont know if it is still on the menu, but it would be hard to beat Jesse's grilled baby squid! And he always has some seafood on the menu.
Although we havent eaten there in a while, La Costa at the foot of 5 de Febrero, right on the water always had excellent seafood and a nice location.
Comitan tuned us on to it. Perhaps he has been there recently.

Mi Barquito, on the Malecon serves really good seafood. It is at the south end of the Malecon. It's so good that locals eat there too. Reasonable
prices.
Here is a photo of the kitchen:

Yes, that was our food before we ate it.
That was called the SEAFOOD FEAST. I don't remember what the apetizer was, however.
We generally work on the margaritas (usually order double shots)first.

Las Brisas on the Malecon out towards the El Moro Hotel.
Bismark - can't remember the cross streets, though - maybe Altimirano and the next street over from Bravo. (It's a block or 2 from the big CFE main
office building).
Mar y Pena - we had one great meal there and one so-so one, but it is popular with the locals.

Surprised to hear that. Was it just that you were freezing to death when the temp dropped below 80?
We've liked La Costa most of the time.
I think the world is run by C- students.

That meal, and the adult beverage, would put a smile on about any Nomads face. It surely did mine. Yum!

Many years ago, the Bismarck was the best in town. If you said seafood for dinner...you went there.

I know they had the name Roger, but I had a couple of the worst meals I ever had anywhere at that place. And that was years ago, sometimes in the
80's. The lobster was so tough in one case, besides smelling like sombody p*ssed on your plate,that it was inedible. We took it with us, to prevent
some poor slob getting it in his lobster salad, and, tossing it to some street dogs, weren't surprised that even they wouldn't eat it.
So much for fame.

Some of us wouldn't be smiling when we got the tab.

Ed, you reminded me that some other people have said the same thing lately about the Bismarck. Too bad.
Oh well, the last time I ate there was in the mid-70's. Maybe it was better then? At any rate, I withdraw my input.
I'd much rather have a good steak, anyway.

Going tomorrow. Up to now I think we will go to Mi Barquito. Udo I think it is because I am easily swayed by the visual!
Will report back how it was. Thanks all. Will be having many more opportunities in the future now to try your other recommendations.

Morgaine7:
Could your new "Bismarckcito" be the same Mi Barquito? It is on the Malecon between Hidalgo & Constitucion.

You are right, Morgaine7! I subjuntivo to your direction. Mi Barquito is at the South end of the Malecon, but with my memory...North is South, and
West is East. It's a good thing I'n not driving today.
